Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A communication system comprising: a control unit configured to: connect a system user with a channel participant in a channel sub-group of an anonymous voice chat session, wherein the channel participant includes a participant rank as a peer based ranking of a communication content of the channel participant, for modifying a communication time limit for the channel participant, and modify a turn order in a speech queue; determine a participant distance as a virtual distance for the channel participant relative to the system user; adjust a volume level for a verbal communication of the channel participant based on the participant distance; implement a sound dampening effect to reduce the clarity of the verbal communication of an instance of the channel sub-group different from the channel sub-group of the system user; determine a trending topic for the different instances of the channel sub-group by analyzing the communication content that is repeated or common in the verbal communication in the channel sub-group; and generate a display of the trending topic on each of the different instances of the channel sub-group with the anonymous voice chat session available for selection by the system user; and a communication unit, coupled to the control unit, to transmit the verbal communication.
2. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to determine the trending topic for a voice chat channel including multiple instances of the channel sub-group to display the trending topic for the multiple instances of the channel sub-group through a user interface.
3. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to generate a voice chat channel based on a geographic location.
4. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to enable an access restriction for a voice chat channel.
5. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to provide a moderation control mechanism for the channel participant with respect to the system user.
6. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to arrange the system user into the channel sub-group with the channel participants, including to display the channel participant according to the sub-group on a device.
7. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to provide a moderation control mechanism based on the participant rank.
8. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to provide a moderation control mechanism including the communication time limit.
9. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to provide a moderation control mechanism including a speech queue.
10. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to implement a user anonymity mechanism for the system user with a voice alteration mechanism.
11. A method of operation of a communication system comprising: connecting a system user with a channel participant in a channel sub-group of an anonymous voice chat session, wherein the channel participant includes a participant rank as a peer based ranking of a communication content of the channel participant, for modifying a communication time limit for the channel participant, and modifying a turn order in a speech queue; determining a participant distance as a virtual distance for the channel participant relative to the system user; adjusting a volume level for a verbal communication of the channel participant based on the participant distance; implementing a sound dampening effect to reduce the clarity of the verbal communication of an instance of the channel sub-group different from the channel sub-group of the system user; determining a trending topic for the different instances of the channel sub-group by analyzing the communication content that is repeated or common in the verbal communication of the channel sub-group; and generating a display of the trending topic on each of the different instances of the channel sub-group with the anonymous voice chat session available for selection by the system user.
12. The method as claimed in claim 11 wherein determining the trending topic for a voice chat channel including multiple instances of the channel sub-group displaying the trending topic for the multiple instances of the channel sub-group through a user interface.
13. The method as claimed in claim 11 further comprising generating a voice chat channel based on a geographic location.
14. The method as claimed in claim 11 further comprising enabling an access restriction for a voice chat channel.
15. The method as claimed in claim 11 further comprising providing a moderation control mechanism for the channel participant with respect to the system user.
16. A non-transitory computer readable medium including instructions for operating a communication system comprising: connecting a system user with a channel participant in a channel sub-group of an anonymous voice chat session, wherein the channel participant includes a participant rank as a peer based ranking of a communication content of the channel participant, for modifying a communication time limit for the channel participant, and modifying a turn order in a speech queue; determining a participant distance as a virtual distance for the channel participant relative to the system user; adjusting a volume level for a verbal communication of the channel participant based on the participant distance; implementing a sound dampening effect to reduce the clarity of the verbal communication of an instance of the channel sub-group different from the channel sub-group of the system user; determining a trending topic for the different instances of the channel sub-group by analyzing the communication content that is repeated or common in the verbal communication of the channel sub-group; and generating a display of the trending topic on each of the different instances of the channel sub-group with the anonymous voice chat session available for selection by the system user.
17. The non-transitory computer readable medium as claimed in claim 16 wherein determining the trending topic for a voice chat channel including multiple instances of the channel sub-group displaying the trending topic for the multiple instances of the channel sub-group through a user interface.
18. The non-transitory computer readable medium as claimed in claim 16 further comprising generating the voice chat channel based on a geographic location.
19. The non-transitory computer readable medium as claimed in claim 16 further comprising enabling an access restriction for the voice chat channel.
20. The non-transitory computer readable medium as claimed in claim 16 further comprising providing a moderation control mechanism for the channel participant with respect to the system user.
